Thftr I'hopohkd Kkmoval The Philadelphia
Having Fund Society was Incorporated la the
yt ar 18111, being thus one of the oldest, as it cer
tainly is one of the most substantial, establish
nimUul the kind In the United States. Ju
organisation Is quite peculiar, being free from
tin- joint-slock principle, and of a purely bene
ficial character. Its affairs are conducted by a
Hrd of Managers, which la self-perpetuating;.
Whenever a vacancy therein wcurs, the re
maining members of the Hoard maae out a 1 Ih t
of five names, which is submitted to a Hoard
Of Appointment consisting of the Chief
Justice of the Hupremo Court of the
fta'e, and t he l'rr siuent Judges of the Court of
Coin mon 11 ess and District Court of I'll I Itnlel
phlu. From the list of Ave names, the Hoard
Of ppointment selects one to Mil the vacancy;
but hi case a majority cannot agree upon any
one of the Ave, u new list must be made out by
the Manners and presented lor their con
spiration, the ceremony being repealed until
the vacuncy Is Ihled. The entire all'nirs of the
Institution are under the control of the
Managem, no one of whom, excepting
the President, Is permitted to receive
any remuneration for his services. Nor
Is anyluember ol (lie Hoard permitted to bor
row money irom the lUHiitutlou, or to be in
terested, directly or Indirectly, in any of the
Invest menu made by the Hociety. Deposits
are received In sums of one dollar and up
wards, interest being allowed on the same
when they amount 10 five dollars, the wliole
amount, including inteiesl, lo be repaid on
two weeks' notice.
V hen the Hociety commenced Its operations,
ne: rly fifty years ago, it was in an humble way,
the manager attending at the olllco in turn,
lor the purpose ot receiving I lie deposit. Hut
the Institution gradually worked Its way tnto
poi ularlly wi:h the laboring classes, and by
and by a Treasurer was a mointcd, on a small
salary, to attend to the olll 'o business. After
several removals, the Hociety, In 18W. moved
Into the handsome building at Mo. 3.Hi Wnlnut
streit, which It still occupies. At that time
the depositors numbered about 7000. Sluco
then the business has Increased to such an
extent, that there are at present about gj.OUO de
positors, and a surplus fund, to provide ugatust
any contingencies, has been accumulated lo
the amount of over half a million of dollars.
The present accommodations of the Institu
tion have long been too restricted for the ex
tent of its business. For this reason, the pro
perty at the comer of Walnut street and West
Washington Square has just been purchased,
at au expense of 850,000. The purchase includes
the large mansion at the corner,
which was for many years the resi
dence of the late Joslih Randall, as well
as the adjoining properly of Hobert Walu, risq.,
giving a total lronluge on Walnut street of ol
leet, with a depth of 17a feet. On this Nlte,
which is perhaps the most central and eligible
for the purpose lu the city, It is tiieinteutlou of
the Hociety to erect a commodious and con
vent) nt building, which shall be absolutely fire
and I'limlar-proof. As the present lease of the
W aln property will not expire for several
mouths yet, a year will probably elapse before
the projected improvements cau be under
taken. The officers of the Institution consist of the
following gentlemen:
President Caleb Cope.
Treasurer William Purves.

Bounty Swindlers in Camden $20,000 In
volved. on the 20th of March, 18H5, a law was
passed by the New Jersev Legislature appro
priating 88 a month to all soldiers, sailors, or
murines irom that time to the date of dis
charge, provided they had families or widowed
mothers dependent upon them. The papers of
those entitled to it are made out by the Mayors
of the different cities and forwarded to
Trenton, with tilo recommendation that
they are correot, and payment is required.
The money is then forwarded to their
Honors, and by them handed to the
claimants. Heretofore it has been the custom,
when any one appeared and swore that he had
a wife or widowed mother residing in ihe State
on the 20th of March, IStio. not to question his
veracity; but Mayor Cox came to the conclu
sion that thhre was something wrong, so he set
about making an Investigation, lieiore he had
proceeded far, he became confident that fraud
vras being practised.
Yesterday, William Smith and John Breene
called upon him and requested their back pay,
their papers having been made out, forwarded
to Trenton for approval, and returned with the
money, with instructions to pay them.
The Mayor questioned them as to their
families, and tuey gave such contradictory
statements that they were looked up for a fur
ther examination. Smith bad stated to his
Honor that his wife formerly lived lu Glouces
ter, but that now she resided with her mother,
at the northwest corner of Third and South
streets. Philadelphia. An officer was despatched
to see her, and Interrogated her as to her know
ledge of Smith whom Btia denied kuowlng at
flist and to her residence in New Jersey. This
she denied also; but afterwards, no doubt judg
ing frm th anxletv of the otHoer that some
thing was wrong, said she did live in New
Jersey atone time, but could not recollect the
no me ol the place. .... . ,
I ast venlng Hreene had a hearing, when he
scknowle iged that he was induced to vlsU
(.m i,n hv some nurtles Amllh among the
ni-inber who told him all that was necessary
was for him to swear he had a wile In some
ci nntry town, aad he would be sure to get the
money; also, that he had no wife. He was then
r.. n tct tn nrison to stand his trial. Smith
liad already received his money, amountlug to
$130, but the others naa not.
l, la oRtlmntPd that of $20,000 paid ont within
the last two mouths to those representing that
they had persons dependent upon them, three
fourths has been obtained by fraud. The city
I'cmitnn win lose this money If the State
claims it. Mayor Cox is entitled to the enco
miums of the public for the thorough manner
In which he has exploded this little swindling
came, and we have no doubt, in the future,
those who make application for Sta e pay will
have to bring sufficient guaraulees as to the
Justness of their claims, or depart from the
office minus the "greens."

Let not our readers be alarmed, nor anxious for
their personal safaty, when we disclose the fact
that we have a bulTulo in our midst a bifur
cated Individual of the genus homo, hailing from
a city on the eastern shores of Lake Krle, from
whence he derives his name. While wandering
through the lahvrlnths of this city, surveying,
no doubt with wonder, the architectural beauty
of Its edifices, walking in astonishment through
some of our seemingly never-ending streets,
looking with verdant amazement upon the
varied scenes transpiring In our metropolis,
and entranced with the hriqht and comeliness
of Philadelphia ladles, he is suddenly im
pressed with the idea that some of our
Western towns are in utter dark
ness, so far ai a ktiowleCue of the
existence of Philadelphia Is concerned; and
writes that thev ate entirely Ignorant of the
size, area, and population of the "Quaker City"
discovering, too, that it 1 of some commercial
Importance, somewhat larger than Gotham,
innocently and earnestly asserting thvtt we
have several hundred dwellings more than
that much vaunted city, when the number
even exceeds 15.MM. He intimates, too, In his
correspondence, that we are a "modest, unpre
tending sort of filk, "living peacefully, and over
guldtd by the imprisslve if not eloquent
iimt'er emanating from the subtle brain of
the Prophet liricham, "Verily, who-o bloweth
not , his own horn, the same shall not be
blowed!" He asserts, too, that for beauty and
height of stature, whence they can look down
very properly upon the masculine part
of the community, the ladies of this
city are only secondary to the ladles of Buffalo,
when lie should learn that Philadelphia owns
no superior in that respect.
He hints In his letter, and somewhat myste
riously, about the building of a railroad that
will bring luto closer connection the place
from where he comes, and this "town," which
Is becoming of great importance, and may
prove advantageous to the af iresaid, will
she but cultivate our acquaintance. Kind
that one should take It upon himself lo Inform
the people that Philadelphia does exist In fict,
and Is not secondary to uuy city in the country
except Hulfalol
A Firk, and Distressing Calamity Youno
Man Iti'N Ovkh and Killed. About two and
ont-linlf o'clock this morning the bells struck
the alarm of fire boyond the western limits of
the city. As far as could bo ascertained, the
property on fire was the large woollen mill
owned by Simeon Lord, located on the creek at
Darby, Delaware county. Tho mill covers
almost one entire square, is built of stone,
three stories high, and at the time of the fire
was In full operation. Some time ngo half of
this property was burned down, but was soon
built up. The conflagration this tlmedostroycd
that part which at tile previous fire escaped
destruction. The particulars of the losses have
not yet been ascertained.
At the first alarm of tire the Good Will Steam
Kuuine Company started forthescene. When at
Maylaudville, on the Darby road, one of the
hoisesdrawlng the steamer became frightened
uta vivid Hash of lightning which illumined
the darkness of the night, and obstinately re
fused to proceed another step. The director of
the Company. William Howard Coyle, aged 22
years, in company with others, placed a rope
around the horse'a neck, and attempted to start
him by pulling, when suddenly the horse
plunged lorward, knocking Coyle down, who
fell under tho wheels of the steamer, which
passed over his face, crushing the lower jaw,
and laying open a part of the skull. AU avail
able aid was procured to aid the dying man,
but he expired Just, as he was being taken into
the Twenty-fourth Ward Station House. The
body of Coyle was taken to his late residence,
on Pearl street, between Twentieth and Twenty
first streets. It is a most sad calamity which
has thus come over the household of which he
was an inmate.
I'urther Particulars Another Man Killed.
Another equally tatal calamity followed close
ui on the death of Mr. Covle. The Monroe En
gine, when running at a quick rate of speed
near the fire, struck some obstacle in the road.
and throwing oil" the driver, who fell to the
ground. The engine passed over him without
causing any Injury, but following close upon
the engine came the hose carriaue. which
f Hissed over his body. Injuring him so badly
bat he expired In a few momeuls.
The body was removed to the corner or Forty -
fourth street and Lancaster avenue, where the
Coroner will hold an Inquest. These accidents
were the result ol the great darkness, which so
surrounded all objects as to make them imper
ceptible, and, the street lamps wore not
lighted.
coroner Daniels convened a jury at one
o'clock this afternoon to investigate Into tho
cause of Coyle's death. After the inquest was
concluded the following verdict was reudered:
"That the said William H. Coyle came to his
death by being accidentally run over by the
Good Will Hose Steam Fire Euglue, near M.ay-
laudvllle, on the morning or May 14, is7."
Annual Examination. The annual exami

lish grammar and composition, by E. J. Hyan,
and oiners, were wen recuea, ami eviuenceu a

scholars. The recitations in ancient and
modern history, geometry, and trigonometry,
by J. McEvoy. J. P.radley, A. Moyer, P. F.
McGettlgan, and others, were niguiy com
mendable. The nnmber of.nanlls in these

TBI LEIS HOMIC1DB.
Continued from the Second Edition.
Kranz Wlllard (continued) I noticed tlmtbe didn't
lo'.k al peisons as culujly as before; sometimes waea
tbe murder was talked about ne looked wild; lie naid
lie would like to bave tbe mailer decided: be said tbt
be and bis family were dlsyi actd very olieu; be c iuld
not attend Vt bis bi siness hs be did bulore: ne said
tbere was nobooe of bavhm It setlled; be often slied
tears about ttiedlslionorHnn disgrace mat would c one
upon lils lamlly; ne said that he never bad any quiet
li ie tits; I saw Leis about tw i days before Kller whs
sboi; lie waM not very wild, but be was dowucast and
melancholy; bis mind was not as formerly.
W. Do you believe that be was Insane upon this sub
ject 1 Objected to, and objection sustained.
Cross-examined When a man is no longer as be
was belore, he Is Insane; Leis fully comprehended all
the circumstances ol tbe case; I dou'l know whether
he comprehended the tbhiKs around turn; his mind
had a morbid tendency on tula BUbJect; oil all others
he was rational.
oiger lunger sworn Thomas Lels worked for me
three ears; be was a steady workman before April,
1HK; alter that I could'nt set him to do anything: I
Rave him work, but I had to take liie material away
und give it lo iineiher man; bis spirits seemed to me
kind of low and depressed; be was not tbe same man:
when be came to me be talked of nothing but bis fami
ly; I bad to discharge hiui, as I could not get the work
done; about six weeks belore Kiler was shot, I irave
him some work, but I took it awav when be was shot;
1 told my family tbut 1 thought hs would gel crazy;
he got lower and lower in spirits every time I saw
bun; the trouble made him wronir In his mind; he said
he was a rulued man, aud bis luniiiy rulued aud dis
graced, tio cross-examination.
Dr. Thomas Hemming sworn I am a practitioner
of medicine: I have practised about elgut year lu
this city; I know Thomas Lets; I attended bis faintly
three or four years before this thing occurred; I
always looked upon him as a good father, a good
husiiaud, aud a kind and orderly man: be was rather
intelligent tor one In his station in life; I never saw
him oilier than well-behaved; I never heard anything
against his character in any wuv; he sought my ser
vices lor his oldest girl, LouUa, in April, IstM; I exam
ined the child; I saw Lels In April, aud subsequently
about the new year; then there was a per
ceptible change in his manner, conver
sation, and personal appearance, he bad become
worn, haggard, thin, aud pale; in conversation, In
stead of listening attentively to anything that was
said lo him, and answering correctly questions given
lo him, his mind seemed constantly occupied wltu
one thought and one Idea, and that was thai he, his
family, and child were ruined; sometimes in the
course ot remarks he would interrupt me nud eaoialifir
am ruined:" the lust time I saw iiiiu wosou iheday
juier was Kilieo; it was a few mouieuts alter when
cams to me as I was about stepping into my car
riage, and requested me Income that evening to the
court house, as he thought ihe trial would corns up;
I told him that I regreiled I could not go. as arrange
ments which I could not postpone would prevent
mo from going; he then having but a lew moments
before told me to come to the t'ourl-house, and be
present al tbe trial which wus to come up; I made the
remark, "Oh, it is no use to co ne ll will not come
ua;" I then excused myself, and drove off, leaving
him standing upon the pavement: there he stood
fi r several momenu, making uo motion, as one who
knew not whut to do; he said on the occasion mat he
was a ruined man; he wanted mn as a witness In the
case of the Commonwealth vs. idler; in which Kiler
was charged with committing a rape upou
bis child; I thluk, however, from my own
observation, that the muu's mind had
received a severe shock, und, to all appear
and, when I left him saaixilng upon my pavement
theday Kiler was killed, 1 believe that he was in such
a condition that an Insane impulse would bave driven
him to the commission r any di ed; 1 communicated
the result of the examination of ihe child to Mr. Lets.
Q What was ihul condition
resumed I told tbe father that the person
of the child bsd been violated.
Cross-examined I believe that if Lels had shot
Elier upon tee day the child was violated, ll would
have been a natural Impulse, but ai the time be com
mitted !the deed his mind was In such a chaotic
condition that the lnane lmpu,se ruled him, aud that
reasou had no sway.

treaties, and, if necessary, separate the penoeftil
from the hostile tribes; and to post more troop
on the Hinoky Illli and Hanta Ke ronds. Th

General fHister is at Fort Haves, where his

ELECTRICAL INSTITUTE,
No. 220 WALNUT Street.
Curing our Investigations In the treatment of dis
ease In Its various forms by the agency of electricity,
we have obtained very many valuable and startliac
tacts, which, added to the previous though limited
Information possessed by other and less fortunate
operators, place us beyond all previous knowledge ot
ibis mysterious agent. During the course of our prac
tice we have treated and cured, through the know
ledge thus gained, many thousands, aud by means of
our new discoveries have established ourselves as the
most successful Medical Electricians In this country
orEusope.
Electrical Investigation has proved that the humaa
body acts on tbe principle of the galvanic battery-.
Tbe brain, mucous and serous membranes, the ski a
tissues, and fluids, constitute tbe negative and post,
tlve lorces, and every action, whether mental or phy
sical, la the result of these antagonistic foroes. Diges
tion, respiration, circulation, secretion, and excretion
are due solely to electrical Influence. There Is a polar
action established throughout the nervous system
which connects with every part of tbe body, establish
lug and preserving a proper balance of the olectiioal
element which constitutes health, and a disturbance
of which causes disease. There are strictly but two
conditions el disease one ot Inflammation or posi
tive; the other, weak, debilitated, negative and aa
electricity contains these two conditions in the action
of the positive and negative currents, all we have to
do is to neutralize the disease and restore proper
healthy action.
